No I don't ...if she is psychic and knows what is going to happen next...why isn't she using her "powers" for world good...like stopping terrorism, etc...instead she is using them to sell books to benefit herself for profit...I truly believe she generalizes,..and that's easy to do.

I understand her on Montell as he likes her advice.
She said she was on the good side of talking to those who passed on... I kind of leave that alone. I think she can help but the things she goes through we do not see... she sees it to help people and sees it as good.
The living do not know what the dead are doing and the dead do not know what the living are doing.
It is said the evil of demons draw forces of ancestors and come in a friendly form.
Sylvia said something about her Grandmother was a force to her.
Lots of psychics Have been on shows before and all of them said they had a blunt force trauma hit on the head and the loss of consciousness caused them to be able to see a grandmother or a lost beauty telling them information. They help the police find killers by seeing the items and getting into the mode of the victims. IT CAN GET UGLY
I do not want to get into that but the show was interesting to watch and I feel sorry for the real psychics.

I believe that Sylvia Browne is gifted, but she is a double talker, and also she is quite burnt out. She's a good medium, but her ideology is a little twisted. That's only my opinion. I do think she could bring a little enlightenment to those who do not believe in an afterlife at all, but nonetheless, as I said before, her ideology is doubletalking.
Plus, she is capitalizing on her gift. This is not what was intended. She should have to earn her money just like everyone else, and instead she makes her money off of book deals and television spots. If she was so righteous, she'd be doing her services on the street, not on television. For free, instead of capital gain. Enough.

NOT ANY MORE
She was talking live on a radio talk show late one night when some guys had been trapped in a cola mine [whoops - "coal" mine] for several days. At the time they thought there were like 11 alive and 1 dead, and she said she knew they'd be found. And a few seconds later there was a news flash that the earlier news had be wrong - there was 1 alive and 11 dead. She never mentioned that afterword (and sadly, neither did the show host).

I absolutely love Sylvia Brown!!! I cant say enough about how I believe in her, and anyone that can predict everything that she has, has to be admirable! I have most of her books, and she helped me get though my parents deaths when they both died, by her wonderful knowledge of the afterlife. I know that when I die, I will be in a much better place than this earth! One night I had a dream after my parents died, that I was with them somewhere other than this earth, and it was so peaceful, and wonderful, that I felt an inner peace like I never have before. I asked my Dad, where are we actually, and how much is it a night to stay in such a great place? He only said, Its free, you never have to pay anything to live here, and wanted me to stay. I said I would love to stay, but had to return to my husband and children, or they would miss me. When I woke up, I was so amazed at the dream that I never forgot it since, and never will! Yes I believe in Sylvia Brown, and all she teaches us and knows!

Don't believe in her. I do believe that she has a unique ability to read people. The FBI has a program that teaches something like 100 or more ways to read people's face and body to see what they're feeling.
I never hear her say anything negative and there's got to be something negative in at least 1 of those lives she has talked to.

I've watched her and others - all fakes. They're getting fuzzy communication on info that can be proven true/false (e.g. 'I see a T or an H - someone with a T or an H in your family?) and then it kicks into clear, full-sentence communication once they've determined by 'fishing' for the info who the person is and their new info can't be proven true or false (e.g. 'Your father said he loves you and not to worry and blah blah blah'). The professional debunker The Amazing Randi (intentional tongue-in-cheek name) has a simple test and will give people 1 million dollars if they pass it. Sylvia agreed to take it but then never went to do so -- http://www.randi.org/sylvia/index.shtml

i really dont think so... i mean sometimes it seems like she does know what she is talking about but then other times it seems like she just tells people what they want to hear. i watched the show yesterday and i dont think that she once said a single bad thing to anyone. people who study body language say that when people touch their face it is a sign that they are lying or cant think of something to say. i just dont think it is really real but i do get suprised sometimes.
